No one could potter please Colonel GriIlle than by paving attentions to hiS wife.

His wife, though young. oared but lit- tle for the "tox -iiro" af society all brightness aud na wafmlh-~atd would not have dnncod and tiirtNi had not tho colonel taken such n k@n delight in the contemplation of her canqiests.

When the heaven shall be cloven in sunder, And the stars shall be scattered and lied, And the sea shall be shaken with thunder, And the tombs shall vomit their dead,- For the emptiness felt in their bowels shall
 fill them with wonder and dread. Each soul that has sinned in its living The same shall be troubled with fear, And also be filled with great gr-eying, And likewise with woe and despair They shall call on the sea and the air, For the great Unbegotten shall judge them,
 nor temper his judgments nor spare. Yea, then shall they call on the Prophet And the mouths of their spirits make moan, But scant good shall be given them of it, For the ears of the Prophet have grown As the ears of an image Of stone, That shalt call on it's carver for life, and take
 for its being his own. Then Hell shall boil gladly and glitter. For their presence therein shall be fixed And the drink of their thirst shall be bitter As ordure and wormwoOd mixed;- ca, foul as the waters of Styx That the Greek, in their heather conceiving,
 at the entrance of Tophet fixed. For the angels of honor and glory
 Appointed of God in His sight, Keep record and charter and story, And stand in His presence and write The things which ye do in the night, And the things which ye do in the deserts
 and the things which ye do in the light. The day He shall read them before ye The same 1t behooyee ye to dread, For the sword of His wrath shall be OCT ye, And the feet of Al Borak shall tread Like sandals of flame on your head, And no soul may tighten another one whit of
 the judgment ye dread

LIMNINGS.

An old fellow, a graduate of the old school and who had taken consider able whisky during recess, was cen- sured by one of his friends on account of his disposition to fall i'll love with every handsome woman whom he met.
 "You are too old for such foolish ness, Tom. And, besides that, you are a married man."
 'I know all that" the old fellow re- piled, "but the human heart, no mat ter how heavily mortgaged, is ever ready to go deeper in debt"
 Extract from a Missouri paper "We gladly return the heartfelt thanks of ye editor to Uncle Jesse Truman, who has just left at our office the largest watermelon of the season. Uncle Jesse is one of our most pros. porous and intelligent farmers, and when it comes to raising watermelons, why, no man can snatch the palm away from him. He has a very fine cow which he wishes to sell, and we cheerfully take this method of com municating the fact to our friends, even if we did have to stop our press in order to get the announcement in this weeks issue. Ten Minutes Later Uncle Joe Mulhow has just brought in the whoppingest watermelon we ever saw, and we were born and raised in a watermelon country. It lays all other melons in the shade, and we advise Uncle Jesse Truman, who is no slouch of melon raiser, to stir his stumps. Uncle Joe Mulhow tells us that he has two cows for sale, and we'll bet anything they are good ones, for he was raised among cows and knows what they are. Here let us remark that we are always pleased to meet our farmer friends, and that each and every member of our large and rapidly increasing family are powerfully fond of watermelon. The rooster which Uncle James Hoyt gave us is dead, and as we are in great need of one at present-a game one that can whip anything in the neighborhood- we cordially invite our friends to con- tribute.

"leeckon I better fill 'em up again. said the old fellow.
 "Ies," responded the colonel. By tho way, major, what is that old song we used to sing?"
 "'Rilly in the Low Ground,' be- lieve.a
 Well. let us have it."
 They started the song, and the cap tain. who is not singer, took up a broom, and. in imitation of banjo performance, picked the straws. "lt makes fellow feel young to sing those old songs" said the colonel. Nothing like fee ing young, eh, cap?"
 "Nothing like it except feeling younger. Ramrod-how, how--tirst time I've thought of that old minstrel gag for years. Ramrod, fill up these horse tracks again, sill you? We arc going to sing The Boys From Over the Creek
 The old fellow filled up the glasses. "How much is all this going to cost, the major asked.
 "It makes no difference. The broth ertood will have to pay for it." the colonel responded.
 "No, gentlemen" said the old fellow, "you are goin' to pay fur it. don't look ter no brotherhoods. You settle with me and make the brotherhood pay you back"
 "Don't be uneasy" the captain re- sponded. "We'll pay you, and blamed liberally, too; you understand? Fill lem up."
 They sat and drank and sang until the old fellow reminded them of the lateness of the hour. but they laughed at him and called him sleepy head, and when at last he lay down on the floor and went to sleep, they poured cider on his head and danced about him in imitation of Indians. They found their way to the cider barrel, and to save time moved their table close to it and gave themselves up to the old memories that float on the waves of old songs. The sun was shining, but they needed it not. The neighboring dinner horns blew, but they still sat at the table. Late in the afternoon the old fellow told them that 1t was time for the committee to cease its labors, adding that he had harnessed up his horses and would drive them to town, that is, SO soon as they saw fit to pay the analysis bi l, which, he said. amounted to thirty dollars. They paid the bill, got into the wagon and went to town, singing high pitched and discordant songs as they travelled. The brotherhood was in session, and, anxious to make their report, the committee entered the temple of temperance. Shortly after ward, a member sent up the follow ing "Old Orchard Cider -Resolved that hit do intoxicate."

HIS ONLY FRIEND.

A traveller In the Indian Territory stopped near Il cabin, and seeing an old fellow lying under \ tree, thus addressed him:
 Il am on my way to Tnblcquah. but unfortunately have missed the road. "
 "Then l don't reckon you air on yo' way thar" the old fellow replied, ns he propped himself up on his elbows.
 "I fear you are right; quite right. Are there any accommodations near here!"
 "Old Buck that lives over wander k said ter be mighty 'commodatin' man. Seed him give a fcller chaw terbacker the other day"
 "I mean is there any place where can spend the night"
 "Er fcller ken spend ther night most anywhar, reckon"

wheat Crop Dam aged.

EAU CLAIRE. Wis, April 1l.-Farmers Of
this county report damage of at least 30
per cent to the wheat crop by freezing. The
weather for the past few weeks has been ex-
tremely unfayorable for the crop by reason
Of the intense cold and thin protection of
snow. A few more days of such cold and
unreasonable weather and there will not be
enough OF the crop raised to meet the demand
for seed next fall The farmers in this sec
ton are very much discouraged over the
prospective result OF their labors.
